@portaloffreedom @thomholwerda ah, no, that happens only on old laptops.

Even at like 2% CPU it's rocking like 3Ghz. Why? That makes zero sense.
@thomholwerda maybe telemetry or defender (malware scanner) running in the background?

Sleeping seems to hurt the Windows 11. Won't wake. Not sure yet what's going on.
I promised I'd use new Outlook. I'm using new Outlook. It's miserable.
@thomholwerda Oh no, don’t use the new Outlook, it is funneling your mails to Microsoft servers! 🫣

@thomholwerda No dark mode? I can't handle all the brightness of the default white mode in Windows. I set a nice dark theme with purple accent colors, otherwise I end up like Cillian Murphy in Sunshine.

@kaidenshi I kind of alternate between the two throughout the year. All light mode right now, but it'll change in a few weeks or months.

@thomholwerda Gotcha, like some folks will set theirs to change with sunrise/sunset, you're doing basically the same thing

@thomholwerda If you want to alleviate the pain use IrfanView, Aimp, Notepad++ and PowerToys (Command Palette in particular) For graphics, Affinity or a copy of Adobe CS6 or an old CorelDraw!. Disable all what you can (widgets, optional data, etc.) Edge is ok as a browser and PDF reader.

@thomholwerda It's a web app, so nothing new.
